Green Co. s report on cotton futures says
The fright on near options has continued ana
run into next month, with September rather
the weakest, really making one point greater
decline than August. No special reason could
be shown for the break beyond the reflected in
tiuence from the apparent failure of bull Efforts
for this month. Some II to II points We're lost
but later in the day evidences that the Offering
of September was being quietly absorbed
created reaction, and about half the decline
was recovered On the later options there was
also decline. amounting to some COS points
The absence of good straight demand, and the
disposition to accept crop accounts as I'M
proving leading to a feeling of depression, with
the close slow at prices within a small fraction
of the lowest of the day Spots remain steady,
and continue to sell very fairly"

CHICAGO, Aug 26.-Opening values were
higher on Change to-day, the slightly increased
irmness coming chiefly from continued cold
weather. Wheat, in sympathy with a tirmer
feeling in corn, opened Ac better at 69c for
September. but trading being quiet soon reacted
to 6SJ6c, around which figure 1t remained most
Of the morning. Toward noon the market again
picked M September reaching 6916c. This
Comparatively high figure seemed to have the
effect of bringing out considerable quantities Of
long stuff for at that point nearly all the local
crowd suddenly became sellers and drove values
back TO 6S5kc The talk was bearish on general
principles. The raid Of the bears on the New
York Stock Exchange had depressing effect
on the markets here. September wheat closed
at 6s34 a. 687zc. Corn opened steady on Change
to-day, and during the early part Of the session
slightly better prices prevailed. After noon
decline set in, which was most felt just before
the close, and pricesut p. m. were from IA
sc under those of yesterday The weather In
rains and much warmer temperature. Outside
orders were light and fluctuations were from
local causes. September sold early from 4ia5c
up to 4l9S6I 4l3Ic. from which point IL declined
TO Ale. the lowest for the day, and closed few
minutes later at 4l1EGn4l4c. October opened
at 42c sold at 42I4c and closed at 41Tc. May
opened at 45l1c, sold at 453sc, then up to 4594I
451kc and down 10 45lAc to the close. Oats
showed very little II any change in the regular
market Prices for future deliveries did not
nuctuate any TO speak Of, for the trade was
light. The provision market was in the same
old rut, and there appeared to be no disposition
among the traders to make an effort t. extricate
it. outside speculative business continues light
and local scalpers are the principal traders.
Offerings Of products were fair, and Mt the close
n tame feeling prevailed, but the only change Of
importance was an advance OF Sc on pork Lard
